Gay wedding photographer

The Netherlands is the perfect country for a gay wedding. The Netherlands was the first country to open marriage to same sex couples. Exactly at midnight 1 April 2001, the mayor of Amsterdam executed the first same sex marriages in the world. 15 years later this was remembered with the famous I amsterdam sign in rainbow colours.

Nowadays most Dutch professional photographers treat all people who want to get married the same. But since a photographer is very close to you during this very important day in your lives, it is important to have a good feeling with your photographer. And I am a gay man, and a professional photographer.

So if you, as a gay / LGBTQi couple are planning your wedding in The Netherlands, please contact me to get to know each other personally. Then I can show you my work and only after that you decide if you want to hire me.

General information (still in Dutch, sorry…) on the page huwelijksfotografie.

Some of my photography during (gay) events in my website www.PartyHotShots.nl, including the boat of Sebastiaan and Jan-Geert who wed in the morning of the canal parade 2015. Directly after the wedding they arrived at their wedding boat where 70 friends were already waiting for them.

Very satisfied with the excellent service and the excellent quality of Erik's product photos. Erik thinks along with you and has a lot of patience. He continues until the result is perfect. When we launch our next coffee flavor, we will ask him again for the product photos

Erik Verheggen managed to capture our wedding ceremony in an exceptionally beautiful and compelling way by capturing 'just that' at various moments, as only an exceptional professional can do.He refers to technique, I prefer to talent for timing and image. He also processed the photos into a beautiful image presentation. Quoting a friend (who couldn't be there): "The photos just make me feel like I was there myself."Magic light lantern was once called photography.Verheggen's work is certainly magical.But maybe you shouldn't talk about images, you should just see them. So we gave Verheggen permission to show our photos to illustrate his work and working method.So let the images speak...

Erik is a very nice and skillful photographer. We were a group of 13 ladies who booked a photo shoot with him in Amsterdam, mainly in Vondelpark.First of all, the communication before the shoot went really smoothly. During the shoot, Erik showed us a lot of nice spots and took photos of us in different poses which lead to us having a large amount of astonishingly beautiful photos. Even though the weather was not exactly nice, Erik managed to make the photos look lovely.On top of his great work as a photographer, Erik is a very nice and friendly person who speaks German and English fluently. I can highly recommend booking a shoot with Erik if you're looking for a capable and nice photografer in Amsterdam!!!

Erik Verheggen is a great photographer. He took photos all day during our wedding day and we are very happy with how he did it and certainly with the result. We have received beautiful photos.This photographer is very involved and interested. Takes the trouble for you and was always available for questions.While taking the photos, he pays close attention to the light, he pays attention to whether the clothing and jewelry fit properly and whether the people look nice in the photo. If someone doesn't like him in the photo, he will make sure that a photo is taken in which that person looks nice. He also knows how to take nice pictures of people who find it difficult to pose when a photo is being taken.During the day he mingled with the people as we requested. He was not a disturbing factor but was just part of it.He has many tools to make photos more unique and his photos are of high quality.If we need a photographer again in the future, we will definitely come back to him, because we are very satisfied with our photos. Once again our compliments and thanks Erik!

I worked with Erik for my engagement pictures. I was absolutely pleased with his resourcefulness. His photography skills were solid and turnaround time were absolutely great as well. Overall, I have to admit that it was a pleasure to work with Erik because of his easy-going, professional and friendly approach.

Erik Verheggen is an excellent photographer. He takes beautiful photos and thinks carefully about what the photos are used for. He also helps afterwards with advice on how to optimally use the photos on the internet. And he is a very friendly person. Highly recommended!
